Heungkuk Life Insurance acting manager Lee Young-soo expressed his resignation after winning three consecutive games. It’s only been 3 days since the director’s hardship.
Acting coach Lee announced his intention to resign in an interview after winning the 4th round home game of GS Caltex and Dodram 2022-2023 V-League Women’s Division held at Incheon Samsan Gymnasium on the afternoon of the 5th. He said, “I had the same thought since coach Kwon Soon-chan left. I decided to quit after this game.”
He said that on this day, he came to the stadium and conveyed his intention to the club. Acting manager Lee said, “I haven’t told the players yet. He won’t talk after the game.”
Heungkuk Life Insurance suddenly fired former manager Kwon on the 2nd. It was a shocking news that flew while narrowing the gap with the leading Hyundai E&C while running second in the league. Director Kim Yeo-il, who caused friction with coach Kwon, was also sacked.
Heungkuk Life Insurance appointed head coach Lee Young-soo as acting manager and appointed Shin Yong-jun as general manager. Director Shin told reporters before the match that there was friction between former manager Kim and former coach Kwon over the tactics of putting Kim Yeon-kyung and Yelena in the front line together.
It didn’t fit logically. General Manager Shin raised a problem with Heungkuk Life Insurance’s tactics, which are currently producing good results, even though they “aim to win.” He also added that “the club did not ask the manager to appoint players”. 토토
Acting director Lee had a different idea. He emphasized, “We think it’s the best position we’ve ever trained (with Kim Yeon-kyung and Yelena at the forefront),” and “I think this is right.” At the same time, he mentioned, “I’ve tried everything by keeping the two apart, but the current position is the best.”
GS Caltex coach Sang-Hyun Cha, who lost in the game, also evaluated that it was “burdened” that Kim Yeon-kyung and Yelena were in the vanguard. Director Cha added, “(Because of the height) there are difficult things,” adding, “If you get caught in that position, you have to give 3 to 4 points.”
Volleyball Empress Kim Yeon-kyung was embarrassed to hear the news of the resignation of acting coach Lee after the game. He expressed his complicated feelings, saying, “I don’t know how far I can handle it.”
Kim Yeon-kyung was in the position that he would not be able to understand more if he had to sack the coach due to problems with the front and back. “I’m getting good grades with this position,” he added. “I don’t know how the club talks about it, but personally, I don’t understand it.”
In addition, Kim Yeon-kyung explained that the club requested former coach Kwon to appoint a specific player. Because of this, he reveals that there are cases of losing matches this season. At the same time, he emphasized that even if the next coach comes, he cannot be trusted because he is a person who listens to the team.
Kim Yeon-kyung said, “It is a very surprising situation, to the extent that I wonder if there is a team like this.”
